My cousin and his awesome wife came to visit during the Memorial Day weekend and brought along their sweet fur-baby. I love it when family comes to visit – I don’t get away from the farm much because of all the animals, and it’s always nice to have company.
We took five of the seven dogs for a walk to the creek that runs through the back of my property. The other two dogs are too small to make it through the tall grass and we didn’t feel like carrying them.
The creek was low and the dogs were able to wade through the cool water and enjoy a break from the heat.
Amazingly, they (and we) didn’t collect too many ticks. I’m guessing they’ll be horrible this year after the mild winter we had.
Dogs make the best faces when they’re shaking water off themselves – don’t they?
Old fat Louie is really starting to sport the grey hairs these days.
And then we headed back to the house for too many cocktails and and some grillin.’
Did you notice the interesting orbs following us back to the farmhouse? ~A
